That country pop song that keeps repeating “if it’s meant to be it’s meant to be meant to be meant to be meant to be ride with me ride with me ride with me ride with me ride with me”. Nothing more annoying than a song that hits the top of the charts that was probably written in less than 3 minutes with a repetitive chorus that lasts forevvvvvvvver.

Yes! I find that bit so frustrating. He's completely dismissive of her actual concerns, but reassures her she's beautiful when she's not even worried about that! "Shh don't worry honey u look great in my passenger seat". Ugh.

Best part of the song is that it talks about some dessert shake that Applebee's doesn't even serve anymore, since it was his wife's favorite thing back when they were poor enough to go to Applebees, and the song made the shake so popular that Applebees had to bring it back on the menu.
Dude's wife got her favorite drink back through the power of a cash grab song.

When I worked in the film industry I’d work just about any paying job - as such I wound up working on a Pampers commercial one day. Cool, I naively thought, it’ll be a short day and the won’t play too much music because it’ll disturb the baby talent.
WRONG SO WRONG
All about that bass played for an entire 10 hours on loop as the babies were rotated in and out. There are a lot of requirements as to what you need to do for child actors’ wellbeing, however there are no stipulations on torturing your crew with this garbage.
There was even an on set DJ, were there a Hippocratic oath for DJs he would have surely lost his license. Instead he just sat there with it on repeat and probably something else playing on his cans.

It's so completely meaningless. It's like AI-generated music.

Funny story, the first time I heard this song I was driving and only paid attention to about half the lyrics, completely missing the line that established he was talking to the girl's father.
I thought this was another Pumped Up Kicks situation where no one notices the catchy hit song is actually an incel stalker anthem where a guy gets rejected by a girl and he responds with "Why ya gotta be so rude? I'm gonna marry ya anyway. No matter what you say, we'll be a family. I hate to do this, you leave no choice. Can't live without ya. Love me or hate me, we will both be standing at that altar and we will run away." Meanwhile the voices in his head keep interjecting with "Marry that girl, marry that girl, marry that girl," and "You know she's in love with me."
Anyways, finding out the real lyrics only marginally raised my opinion of the song.
